| This. I simply don't understand why some people rely on Google given the risk level, impact and their no-recourse-except-maybe-public-shaming policy. |

| Google doesn't capriciously deprecate things in a short amount of time. When they sunset features, there's plenty of warning. They'll tell you that there's a hammer, that it's going to drop on you in 6 months, which is plenty of time for you to get out from under it. Which, I mean, I'd rather there not be a hammer, but it's not like they're gonna announce on a Friday that they're shutting down Google Keep on Monday and I need to wreck my whole weekend in order to save all my notes. |

| Yeah, same. I still have a gmail account that just forwards emails, and I update the email on services as they come on. Being on your own domain for email is just better.Though, I use a service provider to handle the mail server itself |
